For Desselle craft, savoir-faire, and sustainability are focal points of the vision developed in his philosophy of fashion, one rooted in classical communication theory, economics and art history, about which he has taught university seminars in Rome and Florence.
Desselle is a graduate of Columbia University where his studies in economics led him to focus on Bayesian data-analysis. However, while studying he worked as a designer in New York's garment district. During this time he became intimately familiar with the pages of the fashion magazines, recognizing that the imagery and skill displayed in the ads and editorials captivated his attention the most. Combining his early acquired expertise in coding and experience at Saatchi & Saatchi's Management Training program, he landed an art direction job for Raf Simons, which confirmed his path.
A seasoned collaborator, he relishes the moment that the ideas crystallize into form, when the sense of energy becomes palpable. With Daisy Chain magazine, he wants to create another kind of platform, where self-expression and community take center stage with little regard for commercial matters. ""I want to bestow the viewer with new eyes, a transversal way of thinking; extraordinary juxtapositions of the old, forgotten, or overlooked with the modern and sensational."" Of French-Haitian descent, Desselle has traveled the world extensively, having lived and worked in Italy, France, Haiti, and the Netherlands, he considers himself most significantly, a New Yorker.
